Rapoo Technology Launches New Peripheral Sub-Brand aesco with Next-Generation Inductive Axis
TapTechNews September 14th news, Rapoo Technology today announced the launch of an independent peripheral sub-brand aesco, and will debut the "next-generation inductive axis" technology.
According to the introduction, the inductive axis supports 255-level adjustable trigger accuracy, supports RT, and self-adapts to environmental change calibration accuracy. TapTechNews learned from the announcement that the shaft body was developed by aesco in conjunction with sensor solution provider Azoteq, as well as core manufacturer of electronic components Unionwell and Kailh Kaihua.
Rapoo Technology stated that the signal acquisition of the magnetic axis is realized due to the Hall effect. Precisely because of this principle, it is limited by the problems of magnetic field, temperature, and humidity changes in the usage environment and cannot avoid magnetic interference and cannot perform self-calibration with environmental changes. What's more difficult is that the magnetic flux itself is a relatively difficult parameter to control, and it is almost impossible for different shaft factories to achieve uniform magnetic flux. In addition, there are different types of Hall devices on the circuit board, resulting in low hot-swappable universality, false touch, and incompatibility among different brand shaft bodies.
The Azoteq detection-type induction solution of the inductive axis adopts the ProxFusion induction engine, which applies an alternating current signal to the sensing coil to generate a time-varying electromagnetic field around the coil. When the user presses the key, the relative position of the aluminum rod and the coil inside the shaft body will change, and the aluminum rod will induce eddy currents in the electromagnetic field, generating a reverse electromagnetic field, thereby reducing the total inductance of the sensing coil. This change in inductance will be received and processed by the induction engine and finally converted into the corresponding key stroke output, which is more stable.
The inductive axis combines the RT accuracy adjustable and radar-like active two-way sensing technology, which can eliminate various errors. By actively transmitting and receiving electromagnetic waves and combining with signal processing technology, it realizes accurate detection and identification of the shaft body accuracy, and since this process is a two-way test, the chip can achieve self-adaptation and automatically repair the triggered signal according to environmental changes to achieve the best accuracy, and the 255-level adjustable trigger accuracy change is more linear.
The new aesco radio inductive axis product will be released on September 23rd, and from the poster, it seems to be a new keyboard product.
